There's no way TMHTF is the best track...I like it and everything, but the first four tracks and Birthday are miles better. The songs with Johnny Dark are what make the album the classic that it is.

would definitely have voted for 'three words'. what's it doing all the way down there with 1 vote?

"keep the new car up all night" is such a great lyric

I loved all Junior Boys albums from So This Is Goodbye through It's All True, but have never listened to Last Exit.

We had a listen to Last Exit at Record Club:

It really is a hard album to pin down. Has it stood the test of time?

wish some of these songs were longer.. like "more than real" or "under the sun" should have 5+ minute outros where they just vibe into the sunset.

isn't that how they rock 'under the sun' live, shoegaze stylee?

I think my favourites are "More Than Real" and "High Come Down", I wish they'd done more tracks in that sexy driving 2-step vein.― Tim F, Wednesday, September 9, 2009 10:09 AM (nine years ago)

True on both accounts (and timeless goes for most of their discography imo). I wonder what they're up to.
